Always Singing

When Dovid hamelech had to flee for his life he was weeping & singing. !
Why ?

The Medrash explains
He was weeping
because he realized that he had upset his Heavenly Father.
He was singing because he realized that Hashem was allowing him to atone with exile & that he would be reinstated.

Time to Sing

Why do some chapters of Tehilim begin with
A Song of Dovid
While others are in reverse
Dovids Song ?

When Dovid was on a higher level it says Dovids song , when he had to build up to a higher level he would begin with the Song.

This is a great guide for us to utilize to also sing Tehilim to strive to climb from one level to another.
